Jim:

Thanks for catching my typo.

Now, when I run these commands:
 touch /var/log/clamav/clam-update.log ; chmod 0600
/var/log/clamav/clam-update.log ; chown clamav.clamav
/var/log/clamav/clam-update.log ; /usr/local/bin/freshclam --quiet -l
/var/log/clamav/clam-update.log

I get this output:

ERROR: Can't open new file ./clamav-81fb8b0d6067f68a to write
open: Permission denied
ERROR: Can't download daily.cvd from 66.139.75.171

Any ideas?

Thanks,
        Neil
